Sponsorship Opportunities
Not everyone can own their own goat, sheep, or other farm animals. But we welcome your support for our animals.
Sponsors will receive: monthly updates via email, pictures of your chosen sponsor animal, and even have first opportunity to name newborn babies to your sponsor goat or sheep. Sponsors will also be given discounts if they would like to purchase a lamb or goat kid.
You may choose which goat, sheep or any of our other animals to sponsor. You will receive monthly updates on your sponsored animal.
Price breakdowns for sponsorship are below. Note: this does not include any vet work, or extras done to the animals throughout the year.
If you have any questions please feel free to reach out at cheshiremoonfarms@gmail.com or call 319-929-5201
